Las Vegas police identified the shooter as Stephen Paddock, 64. He is a resident of Mesquite, Nev. At this time, police don't have a motive.

"Right now, we believe it's a sole actor, a lone-wolf-type actor," Lombardo said. During a press conference, an FBI official said there is not determined connection between Las Vegas shooting and an international terrorist organization, at this point.

Several weapons were found inside the hotel room where Paddock died, a federal law enforcement official said.

Paddock was not known to federal authorities but was known to local law enforcement, NBC News reported.

A woman, believed to be the suspect's roommate, was named as a person of interest in the shooting but police have since cleared her of any involvement.

Lombardo said reports of multiple shooters and explosives were false.

Eric Paddock, the brother of the shooter, told the Orlando Sentinel that his family is "dumbfounded" by the shooting. "We can’t understand what happened," he said.

What President trump said

President Trump called the Las Vegas attack "an act of pure evil" and called for national unity in the wake of the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history.

"Hundreds of our fellow citizens are now mourning the sudden loss” of a parent, child, friend or other family member, Trump said at the White House on Monday. "We cannot fathom their pain, we cannot imagine their loss."

Trump announced that he would visit Las Vegas on Wednesday. He praised the Las Vegas police department and first responders for their quick response to the attack.
